| 20110183329 | PROTEIN PHOSPHATASE-1 INHIBITOR-1 POLYMORPHISM AND METHODS OF USE - A method for diagnosing the presence of a G147D polymorphism of human phosphatase-1 inhibitor-1 protein is provided, wherein the method involves determining the presence of the polymorphism in a biological sample from a human subject by means which detect the presence of the polymorphism, wherein the presence of the polymorphism is indicative of a predisposition to impaired functioning of the β-adrenergic signaling pathway. | 07-28-2011 |
| 20090216252 | A COUPLING DEVICE ENABLED BY MECHANICAL CONTINUITY OF CELLULAR SCAFFOLDING ACROSS TISSUE BOUNDARIES - A device and method for achieving load-bearing living-tissue-to-living-tissue coupling comprises a myriad of fine fibers extending directly from within the substance of one tissue to within the substance of the other tissue. Fibers are similar in cross-sectional area to, or smaller than, host tissue cells. This enables fibers to provide a scaffolding into which proliferating cells of each tissue may grow to form a collagenous matrix enveloping individual fibers and transferring mechanical loads between each tissue's extracellular matrix and the fibers. Also taught are devices and methods (1) for delivering bundles of independent fibers into soft or hard tissue, (2) for transiently reducing tissue drag during insertion, (3) for temporarily stabilizing position during tissue ingrowth, and (4) for spatial distribution of fiber bending stress in the event of a hard tissue. | 08-27-2009 |
| 20090092964 | Methods for Individualizing Cardiovascular Disease Treatment Protocols Based on Beta-1 Adrenergic Receptor Haplotype - A method is provided for determining whether a treatment protocol for a human patient who is suffering from heart failure, ischemic heart disease, cardiac arrhythmias, or hypertension includes administration of a beta blocker, the method including obtaining a biological sample from the patient, determining a β | 04-09-2009 |
| 20080297880 | Display Capable Electrowetting Light Valve - The invention relates to light transmissive, transflective, or reflective flat panel display devices and, more specifically, to light emissive flat panel displays constructed from high performance electrowetting light valve (ELV) devices ( | 12-04-2008 |
